Wal Mart Native?

#1

Post by redhawk44p »

I know this may be personal and I may not get an answer but my inquiring mind wants to know. How well is the Native selling at Wal Mart? If Sal or Taz could just give a general answer that would be nice. Thanks

They're not for say here at the three closest Wally Worlds near where I live :confused:

I have heard that the Walmart account is one of their biggest ones. nothing official of course, but I would venture a guess that they buy their fair share of natives.

I just wondered if the world at large is wise enough to know the Native is the best knife in the case. I can't help wondering how well they are selling.

I wish I could find one around me that sells them. I have called 6 different Wal-Mart stores within a 50 mile radius and none stock them. :(

They can special order Native for you, if you provide them with bar code (716104004003). This is how I got mine. If you have any problem, when call 1-800-walmart. Also few on-line dealers carry Natives for the same or about the same price.

The salesclerk told me they sell as well as the rest of the other knives in the showcase. He said he sells many of them.

$40 for an S30V native -- once of the best deals in a knife around!

i may have to stop by walmart and pick up a new one... i had a PE native I that was one of my favorite users in zambia, ended up giving it to another volunteer working there.

The only wal marts around here that carry the Native are the super wal marts. They get in 3 at a time, and are sold out within 2 days ( less if I get there first :) ) Joe

Around here, not even all the "super centers" carry them, but I have found two so far that do.

No wal-mart in the greater Austin area has them on display... at least, as of a few months age when I last went into Wal-mart. I worked for them in high school, I know how badly they treat their employees, thus, I generally spend my money elsewhere. Of course, I am a man of compromise, for a 40$ native I can bear to give Sam Walton's estate some extra pocket change :P

Had the same problem. I was passing through Findlay and finally found one that had them.
